Cabin close to Lake Rathbun #2
10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (1)
"If you are looking for a quiet, peaceful, nature filled get away, this is a perfect choice. The front porch provides a beautiful view of the river side of Lake Rathbun. The sky is full of birds, pelicans, and breathtaking sunrises and sunsets...along with hummingbirds that fly right up on the porch with you. It's a simple charming atmosphere, peaceful, relaxing and just minutes away from the boat ramp. A hidden gem, highly recommend."

Yellow Lab - Sleeps up to Three Adults
9.0 out of 10, Wonderful, (4)
"The cabin was spotless and very well stocked with everything promised on the website. The location offers spectacular views of a pond and a nice trail for walking. The cabin was nice and warm for our February stay and it was peacefully quiet and so relaxing. The only thing that was sightly disappointing is how fast the hot water runs out. Plan on less than a ten minute shower or turn it off and on during the whole shower process. We will definitely be staying again."

"We stayed at foxtail cabins for an extended weekend to celebrate a birthday. On short notice i saw there was a bigger cabin available and they upgraded me no problem. Everything was clean and there were all the modern amenities such as a fully functioning kitchen with a dishwasher. We were so impressed a friend snagged the cabin for the following year before we even left the driveway. Only minor gripe is it was hard to find in the dark due to the lights by driveway entrance not working."

5/5 Excellent
Plenty of room and clean
"We needed a place to stay for a celebration of life for our grandpa. The place was very roomy and clean. The nightlights in the basement were very helpful to find your way around. We just needed a place to rest our heads at night, but it would be a great place to stay and explore the lake and other amenities it has to offer."
